Mint Royale came out of Manchester in 1997, founded by Neil Claxton and Chris Baker, a duo with a taste for big beat's fat breakbeats, cheeky samples and dance-floor grins. On the Ropes gave the world "Show Me", and it didn't hurt that Fatboy Slim was a fan, working their tracks into his DJ sets.
The UK top 40 came calling several times, with "Don't Falter", "The Sexiest Man in Jamaica", "Blue Song" and "Singin' in the Rain", spread across On the Ropes, Dancehall Places in 2002 and See You in the Morning in 2005. Baker left in 2004, and Claxton has carried on under the Mint Royale name on his own.
